chasing our shadow down city sidewalks

i can't help but wonder if you miss me like i miss you

picking wild daisies, your birth flower, off the side of the road as i place them in my hair the way i tucked it behind your ear

i can't help but wonder if you still think of me too or if i have been forgotten

everywhere i go i look over my shoulder in case you're there

am i the one you look for in a crowded room?

do you wish you could see me too?

everything i do i wish i could be doing with you

do you miss the sound of my voice the way my heart is aching to hear yours again?

do you wish you were standing here next to me like i wish you could be?...

i go through my days
& i can't help but wonder
if you miss me
like i miss you?

does it hurt you still
like it hurts me?


or perhaps you've forgotten
about me?

i can't help but wonder
if i had only
slowed it down
would you still be in my arms?

would you still think of me?

would you still want to be next to me?

i can't help but wonder,
if i had only
slowed it down...

we were my everything
until you were gone

now i yearn for us
from dusk until dawn

watching as your car gets smaller as you drive away

it all goes blurry
as tears turn my eyes
into caleidescopes

you're the first and last thought of all my days

i'm not sure why i keep hoping you'll call me

or why i keep hoping one day you'd be standing there next to my car waiting with a hug & a kiss & an "i take it all back"...

i hope one day i'll get to be as lucky as the monarch that landed on your soft brown hair that day

or the freshly painted poles that stained your hand yellow

i would spend
all my pennies,
every shooting star,
every 11:11,
every dandelion,
all my birthday cake candle wishes
on you, darling

nothing makes a room feel emptier than wishing you were in it.
(or knowing you're not in it.)

i just want to be there
to hold you
to tell you it's all going to be alright
to kiss you in the rain
& be there through the dark & light.

i drive past your apartment
aching to just drop by,
stop to say hi,
bake a strawberry cake,
watch our favorite movies,
ask questions about life,
& kiss you in the dark until
the sun comes up.

pancakes for dinner
wouldn't be the same without you.

late night city drives wondering if you wish for these things too.

and all i do is spend
all my pennies,
every shooting star,
every 11:11,
every dandelion,
all my birthday cake candle wishes
on the hope that one day we'll do everything we said we would...

one day near, one day far

one day later, one day soon...

the right one won't mind being with you even when you're at your worst & all of your days have darkened.
